But as you say, the tuning would not be perfect.

Agreed, quality suspension makes or breaks a car, and is something that you should buy the best you can afford, the nicest ones i've seen of late are these guys, http://www.blackartdesigns.com/ who have a good pedigree behind them.

Kind regards

The last thing that i used designed by Darren George, catastrophically failed during normal use, it could have been any number of factors that caused it but thought i would share. Those drawings look ok but i would still get them stress modelled in a good cad package before feeling comfortable about using them in a road application.
